Why Brock?

Why Brock?

Brock is a place where left-brain and right-brain thinking come together. Students develop rational/analytical thinking in concert with their emotional/creative sides. We view community involvement as crucial to developing intelligent, well-rounded members of society.

Our rigorous undergraduate, graduate and doctoral programs include experiential learning opportunities and one of Canada’s largest co-op programs. Our cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary programs offer multi-faceted degrees that help students build careers and get jobs.

We’re growing

For a decade, Brock has had the second-highest growth of students of any Ontario university.

More than $300 million in construction has been committed or commissioned to expand the campus. In recent years, we've constructed:

Brock has a park-like setting atop the Niagara Escarpment in Ontario’s Niagara peninsula. Brock's campus is part of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

We have the numbers to back it up

Consider the following:

When students from across our seven faculties gave their ratings to the Globe and Mail Canadian University Report, Brock was one of Canada’s top medium-size institutions in terms of quality of education, quality of teaching and most satisfied students.

With 18,000 students and nearly 600 faculty, we’re small enough to be intimate, big enough to be world-class and in demand among international students.

We care

Brock provides opportunities for social and academic growth that don’t exist at larger universities, like access to professors. Our emphasis on moderate class sizes in seminar settings makes more students full participants in the learning experience.
